What a massive weekend!

Big congratulations to the level headed team Richmond / Paris taking out the 1st outright crew trophie.

Richmond 2nd Driver outright - Paris 1st Co-Driver outright.

They had a points lead at the end of day one and just drove smart and safe and didn't make any mistakes to take out the event win.

Adam and I had mechanical issues, when I smashed the front diff on a launch on the back track and had rear wheel drive only. We pushed on for two more events, but one of the smashed gears got caught in the crown wheel and punched a hole in the diff casing. Therefore I missed out on three events and Newton missed out on five events.

So we loaded the GTR onto the back of the H2 Hummer and headed back to Melbourne, arrived at Racepace @ 6:30pm and finished the diff repair about 10pm, arrived back in Shep @ 1:15am. Big thanks to Ian and Ben @ Racepace for offering to do the work after hours.

We managed to survive the 2nd and 3rd day right up until the last event when the crack in the diff housing started to leak again as Adam pulled off. What are the odds?

Even with missing three events I managed to claw back up to 14th Driver outright.

Since we could no longer get into the top ten crew points, Adam and I decided to go for single event wins. So we pushed hard and got three single event fastest times each.

The rest of team SAU / Wang had lots of success with everyone getting a mentions for various events and classes.

Congrats to all.

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      DeAgostini 1/8 scale BNR32 Nissan Skyline GT-R Nismo

      By Rezz · Posted

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
